I told her I didn't want him to have extreme diarrhea. I think we'll stick with water for a little while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91650 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 12:07:13 +0000 kokobee 91650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we introduced it at 5 months and introduced the straw sipper yesterday! LO was a pro with both! LO is 9 months so he only gets water for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91602 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 08:30:44 +0000 chopsuey 91602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We tried at 6 months, then 9.. Finally at 11 months, Lo is drinking from a straw sippy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91599 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 08:21:07 +0000 pelikila 91599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 6 months we tried with water and it was a disaster so we waited until 9 months to try to force it a little and still used water. Now that my son is 1 we offer whole milk in the sippy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91569 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 05:59:52 +0000 Andrea 91569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did the same as you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91547 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 00:24:06 +0000 StbHisMrs 91547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This early!?!

He's 6 months now and he loves being able to hold it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91509 Sat, 10 Mar 2012 22:44:22 +0000 SAHM0811 91509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOs were 6-7 months when we started them on sippies. We just put water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-introduce-sippy-cups#post-91501 Sat, 10 Mar 2012 22:32:33 +0000 Sweet T 91501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 6 months old. We've given him a sippy cup 2 or 3 times since he turned 5 months old. We put water in it all 3 times...just enough to make sure he wasn't sucking in a bunch of air. He loves it though!</p> <p>How old was your LO when you introduced a sippy cup? What did you put in it? </p>
